7. NGIS Master Plans

8. Backgrounds ofNGIS • A few local governments & public organizations used GIS in the early 90’s • => Data duplication, difficulty in sharing data • Issues such as environment pollution, infrastructure deterioration, natural disaster, and accident • => LNG explosions in ‘94.12 and ‘95.4 • => Lowered national competitiveness • Insufficient technological capability of the private sector • => Government-led investments for GIS applications

9. Milestones of NGIS Projects • 1995. 5 : the 1st NGIS Master Plan • 1995 – 2000 : The creation stage of GIS bases • 2000. 1 : Enactment of the NGIS Law • Projected Investment (billion KRW) : 278.7 • 2000. 12 : the 2nd NGIS Master Plan • 2001 – 2005 : The spread stage of GIS applications • Projected Investment (billion KRW) : 455.0 • 2005. 12 : the 3rd NGIS Master Plan • 2006 – 2010 : The advanced stage of GIS applications • 2008. 5 : Enlargement from 1 Department to 4 • 2009. 5 Enactment of the NSDI Law • Projected Investment (billion KRW) : 1,394.0 • 2010. : the 4th NGIS Master Plan

10. Summary of NGIS Projects Underground facility information management system(1996 - ) Land management information system(1998 - ) Korea land information system(2004 - ) Parcel-based land information system(1998 - ) Geographic information clearinghouse(1999 - ) Urban planning information system(2001 - ) Korea planning support system(2006 - ) National spatial information system(2007 - )

11. Summary of NGIS Projects

12. Production of Digital Map Digitizing Topographic Maps • Rural areas : 1 / 5000 (existing maps) • Mountain areas : 1 / 25000 (existing maps) • Urban areas : 1 / 1000 (new) Digitizing cadastral maps and thematic maps • Cadastral maps (existing maps) • Mountain areas : 1/3000, 6000 • Urban and rural area : 1/500, 600, 1000, 1200 • Thematic maps (existing maps) • Land use : 1/1200 – 1/25000 • Geology : 1/25000 • Ecology : 1/25000

14. Development of GI Policy

15. Framework of NGIS Master Plan • National competitiveness • Improved productivity of administrative works/information services for citizens • =>better quality of life/new business opportunity Goal of the Master Plan • GI Technology Development • GIS Tool • GI Convergence • GI Content Business • Public Informatization • Based on GI • Application Systems • LMIS, UFMIS, KOPSS • Basic environment • for Sharing GI • Digital Map • Standardization • Distribution System • GI Technology(R&D) • Human Resource Training • Strategy Researches Plan for Individual Project

16. Stages of GI Policy Service integration(GI convergence) Application facilitation SDI establishment

17. Paradigm Shift of GI Policy • From government supply-basis to user demand-basis • From public sector application to private sector application • From single topic application to cross-cutting application • From simple material management to decision-making process support • From individual application of an organization to value network at the national-level

18. Concluding Remarks

19. Mechanism of GI Policy • GI Policy in circulating structure consisting of causal relationships among different variables

20. Issues of GI Policy • SDI establishment as the key of GI policy • Demand-driven development of baseline GI (framework data) as core of SDI policy • Important to see “forest” and “wood” simultaneously •  Need to understand the entire mechanism
